  1. Great video. Loved it! Thanks for posting it.
  2. And if the wife suddenly finds you constantly under her feet after your completion, rather than you being in the shed, they may even suggest a new build for you 😄
  3. For so many like me who are now beyond the years where they'd dearly love to build, I for one, simply admire the determination to succeed like Marty and no doubt many others. I find it both inspirational, and also learn a lot along the way. Good on you guys, you deserve any positive appraisals you receive, and I so look forward to seeing the final results of your sometimes frustrating challenges and achievements. Rgds Planey
  4. These are most interesting posts for many, i'm sure. Keep them coming.
  5. Live that dream Bennyboy. That looks great. Gotta admit, i'm a bit envious, but sure you and the misses deserve it.
  6. So that's what "fly by wire means" We learn something new most days!😄
  7. That's sad. Looked beautiful both in the air as well as on the ground in one piece. Unfortunately, most who have been involved in model aircraft, know that sometimes tragic things happen. I used to reckon that any spare tissue that once came in a kit, was to wipe your eyes with when things went pear shaped.😂
  8. Old farts like me, remember these things 👍
  9. Love the paint job 👍
  10. Remember, success if often achieved by those who have suffered some sort of failure, but continue to strive to achieve their goals, You'd be no different, and we're all confident you'll continue till you achieve something both you and others will admire with envy. It's all a learning experience from any mistakes and any tempory set backs. Love your work so far.
  11. That looked pretty stable considering the angle of the wind sock
  12. For those that didn't know, they were often known as "the flying greenhouse" due to the fact that some had so many windows.
  13. Forget the ribbing from your mates on here.😄 That would have been great!
  14. Progress is looking good mate. Remember "Gone with the wind" also took a long time to make, but was very successful in the end. Keep at it young fella! Mabel should love ya
  15. Having been a "Mr Fixit" for many, many years, I love these sort of videos and always try to consider what I think the problem is before it's revealed in the video. Interesting stuff for anyone mechanically minded. Thanks for posting and keep them coming, as i'm sure it will help many others who are not quite sure. Always better to resolve problems while still on the ground, if possible.
  16. I would love to have a go at that, but would need to borrow someone's good left knee.😀
  17. Looks to be fairly good news for some, but really feel for those less fortunate.
  18. I was in the area just after the last flood and that was sad enough for me to see. Wishing all in the area good luck and hoping that things are a little better for those affected. At least my daughter-in-law is up the hill and away from it all, even if they can't get down into town.
  19. Never mind spacey. Gotta take the rough with the smooth.
  20. No worries Marty, we'd recognise you anywhere.😀 You're the one on the right!
  21. My tip if buying new shorts is always check the depth of the pockets as so many are far too shallow, and there's nothing more annoying than all the guts falling out and under the seat as soon as you get seated.
  22. Don't whinge at the cost of your training providing it is good. It could prove to be money very well invested in you. Some may have got theirs a bit cheaper a while back, as can be seen on the attached photo.
  23. Progress, Progress, Progress! Mate you are getting there. Well done!
  24. Self infliction maybe warranted, but a contrary view is sure to be revealed in a future post on this NES autobiography. So it it's better on supposedly friendly forums such as this, to keep it so, and to leave for the self gratifying pleasure of the main author who is known to get somewhat abrasive.while grooming his ego.
